Been struggling a bit just recently with all the negative things that are happening in the world & the lack of urgency & action being taken to deal with the #Climate Crisis.
So it was good to be reminded by Mum and Dad this week about the positive impacts we can have locally 1/3
Happy to report that I have been accepted to study for an Environmental Sciences degree at UHI Inverness starting in September !

A few photos from a recent trip on the Loch Seaforth ferry to Stornoway.
In total we saw 330 Common Dolphins, 9 Minke whales and 34 Harbour porpoise

A nice positive, affirming evening at Scottish Southern Energy HQ in Perth for the Powering Futures award ceremony.
This new education initiative recognises attainment as opposed to achievement (passing exams).

Very proud to be one of the first recipients of the Ken Muir award.

A few pictures from yesterdays Surfers Against Sewage national paddle out campaign in Nairn, highlighting the need for all agencies to get a grip on the sewage pollution routinely being dumped in our waterways & seas, threatening our health and the lives of the marine life we all love.

A wee video of an interview I did last year with @scotcoastclean.bsky.social for their Shaping Our Shores project whilst helping to clean up beaches around the Wester Ross MPA

Took part in the latest @nwhbeachcleans.bsky.social group beach clean of Raffin in Assynt as part of the @keepscotbeautiful.bsky.social #SpringCleanScotland campaign.

30+ volunteers removed 1118kg of rubbish from a 1km stretch of beach over 3 days.
The largest single item weighed 106kg !

You couldn't make it up and sadly you don't have to, destroying the Amazon rain forest in order to build a road for the next pointless COP climate summit in Belem

Amazon rainforest cut down to build highway for COP climate summit
The infrastructure required to host climate talks in Belém is undermining the cause, campaigners say.
